 * I don’t like that all the description and support text is lifted straight from
   bib2html. I think the bibshow tag is supposed to add the ability to link to a
   downloadable pdf, which would be nice, but it didn’t work for me. The bib2html
   functionality works quite nicely.

 * Hi,
 * Could you give me a link to the page where too much information is lifted from
   your bibtex file?
 * For downloadable PDFs, you have to follow the instructions:
    1. Create a folder
   in wp-content/papercite-data, with two subfolders: bib (this will contain the
   bibtex files) and pdf (this will contain the PDF files). 2. Copy your bibtex 
   files into the bib folder, and your pdf files into the pdf folder. To match a
   bibtex entry with a PDF file, the PDF file should have be named KEY.pdf where
   KEY is the bibtex key in lowercase, where : and / have been replaced by -.
